Bird's Eye View of Chiberia: Instagram Pictures of Frozen Chicago Skyline from the Air

Yesterday afternoon I was able to capture some cool shots on my iPhone of frozen Lake Michigan and the urban tundra of Chiberia from a Lufthansa Airlines Boeing 747 Jumbo Jet flying from Frankfurt, Germany to Chicago's O'Hare International Airport. Using various filters from the popular photosharing app, Instagram, I was about to construct a series of snapshots from the air that capture the world-famous Chicago Skyline in some interesting new ways. As the gallery progresses you can see the effect that ice has on transforming both the land and waterscape of Chiberia: the Frozen City.
